So sorry for the passing of Larry, he will be missed by so many. Prayers for all the family
Sending our love and thoughts to the family at this difficult time. God Bless
My sincere condolences.
I met Larry at Virginia Tech back in the 70's. We shared our misspent youth together at college and while working at Underground Construction in Washington DC. I visited him at his parents farm and have fond memories of helping him with the chores. Of course we always made time for a little R&R.
Larry was always looking for new ways to enjoy life. He had such a can do attitude. I haven't seen Larry in many years, but I know he will be greatly missed by the people in his life.
Debbie I'm so sorry for ur loss. Prayers for u and ur family
